Got some more info from my exit interview and this is what they came back with: they said that it had nothing to do with me, and that it was a combination of provisioning for budgets, combined with laptop resource problems. They told me i would thrive better in a faster, less constricted environment.

This man suicidally yolo broke down his entire life into a complete and utter wreck. He went from having a house, a girlfriend, a support network to having nothing. He hit me up at some point begging for cash and I told him I’m not paying for this crap. we don’t talk anymore, and I don’t understand how someone can be so entitled as to think someone else will pay for your mess ups. At least when I mess up it’s on my own time and money. Entitlement these days is through the roof

The trash being spewed out was just horrible. It was a hybrid between sit around and do fuck all whilst your country burns and dont take matters into your own hand because God is in control. Defend yourself against a criminal? congrats the love of Jesus isn't in you. It's best to talk to the criminal instead, assuming he doesn't kill you. Criminal murders your wife and kids? Just forgive him, because that's what Jesus would have done. Have a problem with local government because they are blatantly robbing you? Fuck you, do nothing, and pray to God. These are all worldly things, so keep letting the gov rob you because that's what Jesus would do. Wondering if race mixing is a sin? Jesus was a mutt mix, so race mixing is A-ok. I had absolutely no words for the last one.

Every. Single. Point was horribly wrong and contorted completely away from the meaning of Christ. To understand why this was so rage inducing, i came from a church that was very anti Israel/anti jew. In their eyes God chose the people of Israel as a way to fulfill prophecy, but did NOT like them as a people. Just like you can be chosen for a job, you can be chosen by God, either as a prophet or individual to fulfill His will. God himself even called the jews stiff necked individuals, and had to try really hard not to wipe them out over and over.

Salvation belongs to all who believe in Christ, so you can't be selected by God to discard other people who also believe in God. Either God looks after all his children, in which case the kikes can only be seen as a subset of individuals, who make up the totality of followers, or God doens't look after anyone at all. Even without going into the deep weeds, the entire premise falls flat on its face. Good luck discussing this view point in NY apparently, they support Israel or they go to hell.

Also I love how the pastor in question had some sublime bullshit story that never actually happened to explain every point, as if a one off incident marks the totality of humankind. These people are just the masters of cherry picking one off crap that's never part of the trend. If God is against violence, why is the entire Bible and the OT filled with violence? If he's against race mixing, why are there tribes at all? Wouldn't it make sense to have a one world tribe, and forsake the pesky naming conventions? If races and lineage didn't matterm why bother having the lineage of Jesus marked out? Why would the pharisees mention Abraham or being of his tribe if race was just a social construct?

Why did Paul talk to Gentile and jew, and not just "people"? They absolutely butchered Galatians 3:28 by claiming that since Paul states there is neither Jew nor Gentile (part 1), there are no races. Then they completely fucking ignore part 2 which says "in Jesus". There are no races and genders in the spirit of Jesus, which is NOT the same thing as there are no races and genders (end). Again, good luck trying to sort out the nuance between those two statements to someone from NY apparently.

The pastor sucks israel's dick, and tells you to go on a spiritual suicide mission to prove a point.

I've ventured into this dump for not much time (around a week now, just to visit), and holy shit, these people are certified insane. Some nigger went postal in another part of the city. The answer was to lock down the ENTIRE city until the nigger was found. Since you can't open carry, conceal carry, own a firearm, or defend yourself, the only thing you can do is either wait to get shot, or wait for the police to possibly find the guy. How they would find an unidentified, illegal migrant or nigger with a gun, they never really say. On the same breadth, if you're White and you stop a nigger harassing people on the subway, off to jail you go. Instead of arming the citizens, NYC would rather waste millions of dollars on the most convoluted, ineffective methods to target crime.

My gf had mentioned that a lot of shops are closing down in NYC. Whilst one could say COVID and how it was coordinated, I really think NY politicians aren't THAT smart. Holchul is a neurotic crypto jew piece of trash, not smart. The nigger mayor can't have an IG of more than 75. Anyone expecting a fully developed, coordinated plan of attack from a woman and a nigger is giving them WAYYYY too much credit. Im sure some JIDF on this site will comment about how jews are chosen, and they have higher IQ because cheating on a test = high IQ, big boss man.

What was much more likely is that NY, being filled with retards, spent like drunk sailors, tried to gain more power with COVID. They assumed that people would just take it, and continued their effort, using COVID to prop up more fedbux. They forced everyone into a WFH schedule, than had an oh shit moment when CRE(commercial real estate) tanked. Now they're trying to prop up CRE, and re grow their prior business model of in office by being soft on crime and increasing migrant populations.

They can't decrease taxes due to their budget shortfalls, so they need to increase taxes, whilst being soft on crime, and increasing prices on everyone. None of this screams planned, it feels more like retards flinging shit at each other, with so many parts of "the plan" contradicting each other. Heck, at this rate of implosion, gov workers may actually start getting fired again. From what i gather, most NYers were too stupid to realize COVID was being used as an excuse to shut down, and remove swaths of gov spending on public services.

And look at that! Before it was COVID, now the migrants are being used to cut down public service spending. Amazing how there is ALWAYS an excuse to cut down on public services that people pay for. Pay a shit ton of taxes so you have no guns, no freedom of speech, super high taxes, high property tax, and are told you should kill yourself for being White. The diversity needs White labor though, they just don't want to pay them. And then they wonder why Whitey is dropping out of society ...

The arrogance of academic PHDs and somehow their stupidity too     (Rants)
submitted by SmallGuyFromBrooklyn to Rants 11 months ago (+5/-0)
2 comments last comment...
These engineering PHDs are not very smart but they sure are extremely arrogant and self righteous assholes. The one at my workplace almost broke an entire production server due to his incompetence. He decided to push out a new codebase, completely untested to one of our servers. And I quote "it deployed without errors, so were good". When asked how he tested this, he couldn't answer, heck he didn't even know how to run the fucking thing locally. He essentially blind wrote code and pushed it without giving a fuck about the ramifications. Then he lied about what he did by implying no build errors = no testing required.

In terms of smartness, the guy isn't that smart. He can't just look shit up, so he constantly asks everyone else dumb as shit questions. We end up spending absurd amount of times telling him how to do things, because he personally believes doing research is beneath him. Ironically when he was doing his PHD, his manager had the same problems. Refused to listen, thought he knew better, arrogantly did things his way even when they were clearly not good measures.

He recently spent close to 3 weeks working on something. One of our interns got it working in 2 days. It worked just fine, and it did what we wanted it to. PHD man was so livid, he tried to erase the intern's code from our repos. Apparently when he was doing his PHD he got in massive trouble for falsifying data because he hated that his model didn't fit the data. Instead of realizing the assertion he made was wrong, he tampered with the data until it fit his preconceived ideas. We compared the two solutions and found the PHD solution would overrun costs by thousands of dollars of months and had lots of latency issues. But when it comes to academic, ive found most PHDs give zero fucks about minute issues like monthly cost, latency, architectures, maintenance, cleanliness. They have this idea of fuck it, get it out the door, and have someone else fix it later.

If he wasn't so cozy with upper management, he would have been shitcanned long ago. But instead, the useful productive people get shitcanned, whilst arrogant dunning kruger retards get to keep their jobs. This guy is a die hard libtard, biden supporter. Ironically PHD and academics are heavily subsidized by government, and his surroundings but isn too self unaware to realize just how much aid he sucks in. He loves biden because like most academics, hes completely shielded from the retardation through billions in taxpayer cash propping up their lifestyle. More of the same, iovry tower assholes without a clue how the real world works decreeing their ways down everyone's throats.

I dont get it, why are the retards in NYC sad that they DONT have to pay congestion pricing?     (Rants)
submitted by SmallGuyFromBrooklyn to Rants 10 months ago (+5/-0)
2 comments last comment...
As if the retards couldn't get bad enough, NYC wanted to add a second congestion pricing on top of the tolls. So to get into one of the boroughs (I think Manhattan?), one would pay toll (15$) + Congestion pricing (35 - 50$ per entrance, throttled based on the time and volume). Never mind, the city is still broke as shit, and the money raked in would be a drop in the bucket of government spending.

Now the MTA is claiming that they have a state mandate to have a congestion pricing to fulfill their budget needs for the current filing period .... just wtf?! This doesnt even make sense since the congestion pricing was created this year, and is a very new legal requirement. So a legal mandate that was whipped out of someone's ass has been decreed as required because ... why exactly? Nobody can answer these basic questions of course, so it comes down to idiot retards telling other retards to do retard things whilst their retard city burns to the ground.

Why the fuck did i leave my old state .... biggest problem i had was rush hour being composed of some lost cows. And my family, whilst i want the best for them, will keep voting in this dumb shit, and they will keep wondering why the fuck their cost of living goes up. The one family member even mentioned i was too hate filled and that me noticing these problems means i have to cull my anger. So getting robbed is A-ok if you ignore the problem because fuck you for noticing. Dont talk about the problem, or notice the problem, just let yourself get fleeced and robbed.

I was listening to Nick Fuentes and he made me think to the people around me claiming to be Christian. The thing is they sort of have this NIMBYistic attitude of fuck it, not my problem, rapture coming and i dont have to deal with this. But the question is, this sounds like a very defeatist nihilistic mindset to me. It's like these people positively dont give one iota of a fuck about their environment, neighborhood, family, or really much of anything. They'll happily throw it all away so they can keep their cushy government jobs, and highly warped ideals.

I remember at a party someone had mentioned if the cost of living in NYC is too high, why not move. I shit you not, half the people at the party said they would rather get raptured and die, than lift a finger to help themselves. Heaven is better, so wait to die and you'll be good, right? And this mentality is what has shittified NYC, its this fuck you not my problem outlook. Except of course when their ideals come back to bite them in the ass, then these same assholes will be screaming to be helped. They're all about this self defeatist nonsense, until they're lined up on the wall and shot. And the entire time they'll still be convinced its for the greater good.

You simply cant help some people

So my friend had a bunch of issues and decided to stop taking his meds. He had also taken the vaccine but no boosters. Now though, he's starting to develop new symptoms. He started developing central sleep apnea, his body just stops breathing randomly throughout the night. It's hard to explain it but he apparently wakes up and his heart rate increases very rapidly, and he has to gasp for breath in the middle of the night. He also has mild disorientation when driving, where he forgets where he is and becomes confused. The nigga was like a quarter block from my house, and had to whip out the GPS because he couldn't remember where he was. He knew he was close, but couldn't remember the terrain of the local area. There's some visible issues where he forgets words, confuses different apps, and multiple times it almost seems like he's forgetting how to speak properly? Not sure if this is common with vaccinated indidividuals?

Liquid Death Canned Water Is Horrible     (Rants)
submitted by Scyber to Rants 6 months ago (+6/-1)
13 comments last comment...
My local dollar tree has them in stock this month so I decided to try 2 flavors - Mango & Lime.
First off, I hate sparkling water. I didn't know their flavored water is sparkling.
Second, they taste like shit. The lime one tastes like a shitty watered down Sprite with a metallic taste even when poured into a glass.
Third, this water gave me a stomach ache and when I googled 'Liquid Death stomach ache' this article from a few weeks ago
popped up. Apparently there are unsafe amounts of PFAS, high chromium and nitrate levels and they're no longer getting their water from the Austrian Alps, but rather a spring in Virginia.

Not to mention the ridiculously high prices they want for a 12 pack which are about $15.

I think this is another goyslop gimmick that won't be around much longer, similar to sodas like Kick, Surge and Jolt.

When I look at the military ads, and the recruiting issues, trannies, gays, etc, nothing screams powerful or mighty. Even the junk mil stuff isn mostly a job/income generators to stop a complete implosion of the US economy. Seriously, if you took away the mil contractors and job, 50% or more of the US economy would tank with it. Case in point, Boeing can't go bankrupt, because it would destroy a lot of contractors, and suppliers in the process. And let's not forget useless, seat warmer positions. IT comes off more as jewish huffing and puffing of pretending you have superiority, and not because it's there. Case in point the F-35 is way over the mark on budget, and we have very little to show for it. If we wanted a fighter, we already had a few prior, and it serves no purpose in the age of drone warfare. So what was the point of it? Outside sucking in billions in cash, it's a useless rock. And that's assuming it doesn't crash into the ground after takeoff. And yet, here we are. Spending billions on what amounts to very overprice, but cheap trash.

I saw the palantir commercial about drone warfare being used to take out boats. It was laughable. This is from the same military that couldn't take down a weather balloon, and got their asses handed to them by cheap, thousand dollar Houthi drones. But now I have to believe they are an all seeing eye that can pre emptively strike on the enemy before they know we're there. And Palantir will goose its stock and fuck off once people get wise. What makes it more frustrating is it isn't Palantir's money, its the taxpayer. So the taxpayer gets fucked based off these idiotic ideas that will never come to fruition.

Bros, there's a 6-pack of us and we mostly cycle the fire-trails - four chicks, me and alas, @inaminit.

https://i.ibb.co/B5WCBpRp/cyclist.jpg
https://i.ibb.co/2Y3cswGk/cyclist-2.jpg

Five of us ride tubeless but inaminit, of course, must be different and ride inner-tubes. So we are out in the bush enjoying ourselves but inaminit, of course, tries to impress the girls by going down steep side-tracks and inevitably gets a puncture. So he phones us up from the bottom of a mountain and we troop down to find deadshit with his wheel off, tyre off and frantically trying to find the leak in the fading light. So out come the torches. We cry: "You done yet?". "In a minute": he squeals in outrage at our impatience. Finally he finds the hole which luckily is "patchable" and applies glue and after much huffing and puffing pumps his tyre up. Then a thunderstorm rolls in, trees start falling, creeks flooding. This is all inaminit's fault because we would have been back to the vehicles hours ago but for his puncture. The girls feel sorry for him which is why we let him still accompany us. I tolerate him but only because he's a cyclist.

Without government you wouldn't have roads /s     (Rants)
submitted by CovidHoldout to Rants 1.8 years ago (+4/-0)
3 comments last comment...
Any time you talk about government in a bad light, there's always the one idiot who just clamors on about how gov pays for roads, etc. I've lived in enough places to know its complete and total crap. Most of the roads were built regardless of gov involvement, and sometimes roads are intentionally destroyed or ill maintained because of government tampering.

Then there's the fact most of the promises of government aren't government, most of the crap especially in my place was contracted out to private parties. The karens in my neck of the town were so inhumanly lazy about doing even the bare gov duties, they contracted out legally to a private slush fund to have a private party do it instead ... that's how lazy and corrupt the government is at this point.

And then there's toll roads, where you pay taxes to build the roads, only to be taxed to crap and back for beyond the cost of what it cost to build the damn thing.

I used to own a business that did consulting. I finally got a new offer making more money, and i shut down the LLC. When I factored in all the costs of the LLC, I was losing money left and right. Than there's the compliance, state filings, estimated quarterly filings, penalties, S-corp withholdings, social security filing, and who the hell knows. Even though the LLC was making good money, it simply wasn't worth the headache anymore. I found a job, which can only be described as by God because it beats out what my LLC was making by over 50% and it's full time. My accountant advised i just shut down the LLC and go down the full time route instead, especially for the rate new company gave me. Bidenomics everyone!

I don’t consider myself a dumb person and I’ve dabbled with both, and it is extremely frustrating to work with both. Sure for very large enterprise apps it could work, although I’ve seen aws crap out before for hours on end and the user was told tough luck.

However upon looking at what they can do a lot of times I find myself coding something locally instead. Sure I can use who knows what it’s called to do who knows what else. But locally i can piece it together faster and more easily.

I shudder thinking about all the retards who think slapping some crap together in aws makes them good developers. And don’t even get me started on how horrifyingly ugly and all over the interfaces for these systems are

Modern day Christianity is downright suicidal      (Rants)
submitted by BeholdIAmHere to Rants 1.7 years ago (+6/-2)
5 comments last comment...
Modern day Christianity, as in Church based, no research, go to Church and do no thinking for yourself at all is downright suicidal. I had been talking to multiple pastors, and the topic of my parents came up. They told me I am obliged to honor my parents (Exodus 20:12), and that ignoring them, or not talking to them or keeping my distance is verboten. Instead I should open up and extend the invitation to them to maintain a relationship with them. They never explained why this is, or what benefit to myself i get from having such pieces of shit in my life, but Jesus forgave, so I have to forgive too.

The thing is I can understand the concept of what they were trying to say, however the entire problem lies in the delineation of the word "brother". If we assume a brother to be a brother in Christ, than per the book of Mathew I owe nothing to my family. It even says to treat them like heathens if they don't respond (MATTHEW 18:17). And Lord knows my family has tried very hard to talk some sense to my mom and dad, to absolutely no avail.

However, the book of Mathew also says to forgive indefinitely against brothers who sin. This is very confusing, because really, what category do i put my parents in? My mom literally brags she used to do witchcraft and dived into the occult, so not exactly a woman you want to mess with. And since they can't be classified as believers in Christ, it seems the modern day Church is applying broad strokes to heathens, which also goes against the Biblical scriptures of Matthew 6:5-8.

The second problem is the tolerance of sin as an extension of forgiveness. My mom is a trash bucket, and talking about her s if she's not, is in my eyes the sin of lying. The woman got great enjoyment threatening us as kids with knives, guns, trying to feed us hard drugs ( definitely hardened us for sure at the time) and insinuating she would kill us one day. She even tried to bait family members to try and kill each other by pitting them against each other.

Per the church again, I should live and let live, and just pretend all those horrible memories never happened. But they did, so how is me pretending to forget they happened going to help a relationship that clearly is dead? I don't even harbor hatred towards my parents, i just dont want them in my life. But the church is trying desperately to force me to keep them there

Some backstory, this asshole is a software architect who got "dumped" into our team after the prior team rage quite and informally got rid of him. We can't really fire him since firing is not something anyone on our team can do, best we can do is shuffle him around. He came to me today with a small issue. His data grid was reflecting a to string instead of a property. It stumped him alright. He had no idea what to do. I pulled his code and fixed his riddling issue in no time. His properties were being intentionally set to private and should have been public. In the absence of a valid property, the datagrid reflected a stringify call to the object. Hence the error he was seeing. It took me a whomping 5 seconds to figure this out.

I did some digging on the rest of the code he wrote, and I nearly had a heart attack. He started with multiple lists being fed to the data grid from an API (this was written by someone competent so no complaints there). This complete fucking idiot was re duplicating 4 lists into local variables. Upon figuring out why someone would do something so stupid, it had to do with a complete misunderstanding of the datagrid. The datagrid gets fed a datasource, and can be constructed from anything. This moron was recreating a custom object for the data source, doing a bunch of move constructors into the data grid to recreate a new data source. Now the code has 10 data sources: the 4 API ones, 4 new clones, one new clone of the 4 clones, and a property that is a clone of the clone of the 4 clones.

On a data grid that should hold 10,000 records, this guy is creating 60,000 EXTRA, completely useless memory records to load the grid!!! Needless to say, the performance was complete dog shit and Whitey is gonna have go to in and fix this fucking mess, as is tradition
